The iQ-Trigger is a mechanical finger that can automatically press the shutter release button within 25 ms. Essentially, it removes human error that often occurs when pushing the shutter release button manually. The iQ-Trigger is a great compliment to other devices such as STEVE (image stabilization measurements), LED-Panel (timing measurements), lightSTUDIO (real-scene and moving target measurements), and other moving test stands.
iQ-Trigger-T
For touchscreens, we offer the iQ-Trigger-T. This version uses a touch-pen tip for vibration free triggering of the DUT and it can press the shutter release button in less than 0.5 ms. The iQ-Trigger-T sticks on all clean and smooth surfaces for easy mounting and is designed to fit with the iQ-Mobilemount.
Software and remote triggering
The iQ-Trigger includes a USB Interface (USB-Box), an optimized tripod mounting plate, stand-alone control software, and a C++ API. The control software allows you to use your iQ-Trigger out-of-the-box. The API offers you the flexibility to integrate iQ-Trigger into your environment. With the USB-Box you can control iQ-Trigger from your computer or use the included manual remote.
iQ-Trigger add-on
If you already have either the iQ-Trigger or iQ-Trigger-T, you can purchase the other device as a standalone product (i.e., without the USB-Box, control software, and API).
We recommend iQ-Trigger-T, the capacitive touch finger, for triggering digital cameras with capacitive touch screens.
Principle | iQ-Trigger: remote controllable, electromechanical finger (includes hydraulic arm and mounting) to trigger hard- and software buttons of digital cameras iQ-Trigger-T: remote controllable trigger for devices with capacitive touch screens |
Latency | iQ-Trigger: 20 ms (depending on position) iQ-Trigger-T: < 0.5 ms |
